Machinery Vibration: Measurement and AnalysisPublisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product. A practical, ``hands-on'' approach to vibration analysis and measurement Presents, in a single source, a practical, ``hands-on'' approach to vibration analysis and measurement, field balancing and shaft alignment, and how to understand and solve typical vibration problems. It covers balancing, resonance, gears and bearings, structural vibration, isolation, alignment, instruments, diagnostics, and trending. Includes extensive coverage of the FFT spectrum analyzer as well as numerous ``fixes'' to help solve immediate vibration problems. Presents principles applicable to all mechanical equipment as well as many case histories covering various mechanical devices such as fans, common motors, and pumps. |
